How to configure kapt to generate Java17 Java stubs in Android Gradle build file-CodePudding

My current Android project is displaying the following build messages:-

> Task :shared:resource:kaptGenerateStubsProductionDebugKotlin
'compileProductionDebugJavaWithJavac' task (current target is 17) and 'kaptGenerateStubsProductionDebugKotlin' task (current target is 1.8) jvm target compatibility should be set to the same Java version.
By default will become an error since Gradle 8.0 ! Read more: https://kotl.in/gradle/jvm/target-validation
Consider using JVM toolchain: https://kotl.in/gradle/jvm/toolchain

How do you configure kapt to generate stubs in a specific version of java?

I have tried...

tasks.withType(org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.tasks.KaptGenerateStubs).configureEach {
    kotlinJavaToolchain.jdk.use(
            "/usr/local/opt/openjdk@17/libexec/openjdk.jdk/Contents/Home",
            JavaVersion.VERSION_17
    )
}

and

kapt {
    javacOptions {
        option("--target", 17)
    }
}

none of which made any difference

Is it possible to control the java version for stubs generated by kapt in an Android project?

Having enabled verbose logging in kapt3 I can now see I have configure target correctly

Javac options: {--target=17, --source=17}

and in addition

[INFO] All Javac options: {-Adagger.fastInit=enabled=-Adagger.fastInit=enabled, -Adagger.hilt.android.internal.disableAndroidSuperclassValidation=true=-Adagger.hilt.android.internal.disableAndroidSuperclassValidation=true, -Adagger.hilt.android.internal.projectType=LIBRARY=-Adagger.hilt.android.internal.projectType=LIBRARY, -ASomeKaptArgument=ArgumentValue=-ASomeKaptArgument=ArgumentValue, -Akapt.kotlin.generated=/Users/frank/github/mobile-android-practiceupdate/shared/resource/build/generated/source/kaptKotlin/productionDebug=-Akapt.kotlin.generated=/Users/frank/github/mobile-android-practiceupdate/shared/resource/build/generated/source/kaptKotlin/productionDebug, -Adagger.hilt.internal.useAggregatingRootProcessor=false=-Adagger.hilt.internal.useAggregatingRootProcessor=false, --target=17, --source=17, -proc:=only, accessInternalAPI=true,.....

however I still see the above build message

why is kapt ignoring my javacOptions?

To recreate this issue:-

Main project gradle

plugins {
    id 'com.android.application' version '8.0.0-alpha11' apply false
    id 'com.android.library' version '8.0.0-alpha11' apply false
    id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.android' version '1.8.0' apply false
    id 'com.google.dagger.hilt.android' version '2.44.2' apply false
}

task clean(type: Delete) {
    delete rootProject.buildDir
}

gradle wrapper

Gradle JDK

then use kapt for say room or hilt in any app or sub module in your project with java version set to 17

    plugins {

I have created this bug report with attached example android project

UPDATE

by adding this to my project level build.gradle file the messages disappeared:-

subprojects {
    tasks.withType(org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.tasks.KotlinCompile) {
        kotlinOptions.jvmTarget = "17"
    }
}
